Hi !!!

First of all sorry for my English...

I started testing Casino using as plug-in Casino_Super_HnG_PIN_v5.
I am sure you agree it is important a good entry but, exit point, maybe, could be the difference between an excellent trade and a disappointed one.
So....
I installed Casino in two MT4, with different brokers (FXCM and ActivTrades). The idea is first, check signals are similar in both brokers, and using the same plug-in, try closing trades using in one case TP and SL suggested by the Casino and using Equity Lock.

I share with you my first attempt in both brokers. But I have a problem comparing results, because FXCM opens a closes trades instantly in some cases, as I told you a few posts ago, and I do not understand why, so both brokers do not have the same trades. If you help me solving this issue I could continue testing both strategies.

ActivTrades - Using individual TP and SL using TF 1H.

Check your log file and see why the trades did not go through, could be re-quotes or something else causing a delay in the order going through.

The EA showing closing trade in alert window is normal, the EA did not see the trade open so it cleared out the trade so it would not appear in the dash board as one that was open and when it does that it shows that type of alert.

If the EA closes a trade it will tell you what has closed it, in this case there was no open trade so no reason was given.

The main problem is the trade did not go through after several retries and this is a Broker or network speed problem, some bucket shops are known for this type of foolishness.

One thing to remember that most of you have probably already figured out and that is there are differences between Brokers and even Demo and Live accounts at the same Broker.

So what works for one trader may not show the same results for another trader at a different Broker.

When you find some setup that works on a demo account you then need to also test it on a live account, as the results may be different. So don't jump from a Demo account to a live account and bet the mother load because you had good results on a Demo account, be very careful when going live.

It is best to have several Demo accounts from different Brokers to see which Broker gives you the best and most reliable results, I have seen as much as a 2 to 1 P/L difference between Brokers running the exact same setup. Once you find one that works for you on Demo then open up a small live account to test the same Broker live before you invest more money.

Green Pips to everyone

.....me again..... and something I forgot to tell you is that in Casino v38, in properties I defined two sessions. With version 35, with these sessions definied, and Auto Restart button enable, sessions starts perfectly on-time, but with version 38, It seems it does not work. I do not know If someone is using this option in Casino v38 to tell me if I am doing something wrong. Thanks in advance
There was no changes between 35 and 38 to the session timers, they still look at your computer clock, not the Brokers clock, so they should still work the same as before.

This is my demo account with renko default setup from Seller ...
First days are really promising... some order was closed manually at be and some other with a manual trailing stop after reach a good gain.
I think that trailling and Be stop (so a trade manager ) could make difference...

Again thanks to Seller for effort.

Seller9,

Your work is greatly appreciated!!!

When will you be releasing the update of Casino_CCI_PIN_v3d, that is shown in your video?

Also the Casino_CCI_PIN_v3d seems to work on regular charts (not RENKO). Do you see this as better NOT to run on regular charts or is it ok?

Thanks again for all that you have done!

Seller9, what do you think on adding a setting to define the template name that Casino will use as default one?

I know by watching your videos that we can make a template and name it as "Default.tpl" and Casino will use it every time we open a chart from inside it, but I think it would be interesting if we can set it name so we can have a template specifically for the the EA, i.e. Casino_HAS.tpl, Casino_HAS+TBrk.tpl, Casino_HnG+TBrk.tpl, etc.

This way, we can have different sets of templates loaded with different PINs and based on our needs, we define in the properties which one will be using in a certain session and every time we open a chart from inside Casino, it will use that one.
Or maybe it can just be "Casino.tpl" and we can manually overwrite it using any of the already saved ones and that's it.
I'm just thinking on a way of not messing with "Default.tpl" since it is used as a general default one by MT4.

Last but not least, I also know that we can change the current template on already loaded charts using the [Tmp-M] button and using as input the index order of the template (starting at 0) in the templates menu, and thats very helpful when we have many charts already loaded, but now that (since v37) we can open charts directly from the EA, I thought that having this option would be useful as well.

Cheers!

Hi All
For those that have been following the 'Google Group' Seller9 has said that he would like to have a regular GoToMeeting.
To fund that I am asking all here ... if they have a KIS (Keep It Simple) system that makes regular either Demo or REAL money would they please share it here with ALL the details by replying to this post.
As I said the reason I would like a REAL MONEY tested KIS Casino system is to fund the GoToMeeting which for can be $50+ a month.
This meeting will benefit all with live content from Seller9 and with additional videos ...
Thanks again
Cheers
Richard

Hi Seller: First of all thanks for your answers, thank you very much.

About session timers, I checked and found something I share with you.
Session 1, opens perfectly, but I could not be able to start session 2, but when I use the setup of session 2 in session 3, it worked.
So, I think maybe something happens with session 2.
I tried this in order to check funtionality.
Session 1: true 21:34 to 21:35. Session 2: true 21:36 to 21:37
Casino opened Session 1, closed it, but never opened Session 2.
But, when I used session 1 and session 3 and session 2 false it worked.
So Session 2 maybe has a problem.
Thanks for all your patient

Hi.
I activated Auto-Restart.
I understood that Timer Close, it is use in order to close all open positions at the end of a session, not in order to open a new session.
It is true. I did not activate Timer Close, but Casino opened session 1, closed it, and as I had session 2 with false, but session3 in true, it opened session 3 with Timer Close disable..
Maybe I did not understand correctly how to set up sessions, but if it is needed to activate Timer Close, how Casino opened session 3 without this...?
Sorry if I am a little confused.

For "Auto Restart" to work properly the "Timer Close" button must be active, when both are active the pair buttons will not be disabled when the first session closes.

Seller 9, do you have TRND_Brk that will work independently without the EA? I really enjoyed using this but at times when I'm in office, I'm using my laptop and do not have a monitor that can fit the EA.

Anyone here knows of such similar indicator?

Thanks !
